Used Jeep Grand Cherokee for Sale

I bought this vehicle used with the expectation that not all parts would be in excellent condition. While still having less than 100K, this vehicle rides very smooth. It has a strong V6 that has great pick-up. The body feels very stable overall. The interior is comfortable and is easy to clean. I like the 4X4 option in this Jeep. The look of the Jeep is also pretty sleek and sporty for an SUV type vehicle. This vehicle can fit a 15ft canoe on the top with only one single rope. Trust me, I did it and drove several miles on a very rough rocky road. Didn't fall off once! Also, although it wasn't legal, I fit 8 high school kids in this vehicle, so needless to say it has lots of space.

I think this is a very good vehicle, one of Jeep's best. It has a powerful engine, decent fuel efficiency, and is great for off-roading.

The jeep grand Cherokee has a pretty bad reputation with a lot of people, but I think that is mostly because of who they are and how they use it. You wouldn't take a pocket knife can opener and use it in a restaurant kitchen then complain that it's tiring and slow, would you? I had one of these for three years in the middle of the rocky mountains, my house was at almost twice the elevation of Denver. I will admit it cost me a lot of time and money to get in good shape (I work on my own cars) but when I got it, it was nine years old and had clearly been beat up. That is part of where the bad reputation comes in people who buy jeeps don't take care of them but do complain when they break. This years body style was a little overly round compared to most jeeps but not bad to look at. Driving it the interior was comfortable, the back seats were a little small for the size of the vehicle. Most of the cons with this car are from the design for actual use, in this case the floor is higher to give better ground clearance. The ride was good, not great, a lot of people think it's bad but that's caused by front and rear solid axles. They are better for off road but ride rougher. The trunk was plenty big for my tools, or dogs, or firewood. The dogs weren't a huge fan of how high the trunk was above the ground. I had the six cylinder so the miles per gallon were about the same as every other midsize suv I've seen. It had great braking which got a lot of testing on some steep slopes, it wasn't fast, you mostly can't pass on the highway. It has a high enough center of gravity that you don't want to go that fast anyway. There was a lot of low end torque so you could pull a car out of the ditch or creep up a steep mining road. The main downside for most people is how often it needs repaired, but if you keep up on it that's not really too bad. People just let problems keep piling up then scream when they get one huge bill. All the problems I had were with parts that normally wear out. The grand Cherokee went through ball joints, tire rod ends, shocks, and brakes faster than most vehicles but the stuff I drove on would take a toll on anything. Overall I would say this is a good vehicle for working in the woods and driving through blizzards, and a bad one for daily commuting.
